[edit] Royals etc

Please kindly consider whether a person has been prominent enough to deserve an own article here. After all, this is encyclopedia, and biographies should fulfill the requirement that person is "noteworthy" enough, i.e encyclopedic. If a person has been not prominent in their own right, i.e accomplishments and being known, an own article should not be created. Typical problems are children or relatives of prominent persons, as it is too easy to make a link and then an article from the list of children in an article. Royals are notorious to produce also unencyclopedic articles. Such soon will find themselves as targets of Vote for Deletion.

Please think always: is the person mentioned only because of their position in a genealogy? Has the person anything more prominent in the story of life than only everyday events, such as work, coupling, children? It would be useful to consider whether the information intended to a separate article could be written in the article of the more prominent relative who has deserved the own article. Most royals could be handled in this way. Or in an article narrating about a family. 217.140.193.123 06:45, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Warning against cut-and-paste moves

Morhange, you have been discovered having moved articles by cut-and-paste. Cut-and-paste moves are against Wikipedia policies and GDFL terms, and can be regarded as vandalism. You must stop making cut-and-paste moves. 217.140.193.123 16:50, 17 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Princess Margaret(e) of Prussia

You blanked this article ant put it up for speedy delete. This is a bad move, please either discuss with the other editors where the article should go, or merge the information and put a redirect. Discussion is generally good, because if you can get a consensus, people aren't likely to just change back what you've done. Alternatively you could list the article on wikipedia:Articles for deletion, but it is likley to have the same result. Rich Farmbrough 23:16, 6 October 2005 (UTC) P.S. Moves are preferable to merges if the new page has no history to speak of. HAving looked at the history, I suggest you probably want to move the article and re-add your improvements. I've left a note on User talk:Francis Schonken asking for input. Rich Farmbrough 23:22, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Alexius Petrovich

Hi there, Morhange! Where on earth did you get the info that Alexius Petrovich was a grand duke? He was referred to as His Imperial Highness or tsarevich, but never a grand duke. Please, consider moving the page back to where it was. KNewman 11:14, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Princess Nathalie of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg

Hi, if an article is very short, it is not a criteria for speedy deletion or deletion at all! It is a criteria for expansion. If you still wish to delete it, please add {{afd}} tag and follow the instructions. Renata3 18:58, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I properly listed it on your behalf here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Princess Nathalie of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. Renata3 06:38, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Page moves and double redirects

Hi.

When you move a page, it's important to edit any redirects leading to the old page so that they now lead to your new page. This is because the old page has now become a redirect to your new page, so any redirects leading to the old page are now redirects to a redirect, and the Wiki software doesn't follow double-redirects, making it harder for users following these old links to get to your new page. You can find any such double-redirects by clicking on "What links here" in the toolbox on the lefthand column of the screen. Thanks! Binabik80 03:31, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Userbox Senioritis

Thanks for being the first person outside of my school for adding my new userbox, senioritis. You have probably noticed that there's some strange spacing under it. I have no idea what's doing that in the code and I'm working for fix it ASAP. Of course this is difficult to remain motivated, since I suffer, as you do, from senioritis. If you see the coding error, please feel free to fix it. Thanks for hanging in there. Chad 19:30, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Seems that I've fixed it. Chad 21:56, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm trying to build support for this nomination in its last few days. Please check out this page. Pass it along. Nudge nudge. -- evrik 20:35, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Saxe-Coburg and Gotha

What do you think you are doing moving members of this ducal family from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Saxe-Coburg-Gotha? Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was a personal union of two duchies, Saxe-Coburg and Saxe-Gotha, hence Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. STOP moving these articles. They now all have to go up for request moves. Charles 16:25, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pretenders Ernst August

Please see Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (names and titles)#Ernest Aug. and constibute to the discussion there. I look forward to people assessing UE:should English be used in all these cases and how; would any sort of numeral be acceptable; what are the correct ordinals anyway; and Is there any other sustainable way to disambiguate these systematically.

[edit] List of people with epilepsy

Thanks for adding Prince Erik, Duke of Västmanland. I would really like to add a source for the facts concerning his epilepsy. Do you have a book or reputable internet site, etc that contains the info? Colin Harkness°Talk 16:21, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

This is now a Featured List Candidate and I'd appreciate your views (mentioning that you've added a name to the list, just to be safe). Cheers, Colin Harkness°Talk 16:32, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Prince Michael of Kent's son

I agree with your last edit there. Should you need my support for any dispute that may arise from this topic, please do not hesitate to contact me. Brian W 23:05, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Princess Lenore of yada yada

Actually the whole lot of them should get redirects... and this applies to all children of royalty or celebrities that have done little more than be born and wet themselves. None of them meet WP:BIO. That said, I don't have nearly enough interest in the quaint trappings of royalty to go around fixing them all.--Isotope23 17:30, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Living Titanic survivors

I just posted a question for you on the Talkpage of this article. I'd be interested in your input if you have time. Happy Editing :) Doc Tropics 21:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] George V image

Hi Lindsay

Regarding the picture you added to George V (Paris Metro): Isn't this a picture of the parking station (run by VINCI Park), as opposed to the entrance to the Metro?

[edit] Archduchess Walburga

Hi,

I just saw this article in recent changes and saw you moved it from "Archduchess Walburga of Austria" to its current title "Archduchess Walburga of Austria-Hungary". Now I don't know about Austrian laws, but in Hungary all noble titles were abolished in 1945 (well before she was born), so here she cannot be anything but simply Walburga Habsburg, furthermore even if she had been born before 1945, she couldn't have been an archduchess of Hungary since this is an imperial title and Hungary was a kingdom, not an empire. (The correct title would have been been Archduchess of Austria and Princess of Hungary.) I suggest we move this back to the original title, if noble titles are really needed for these non-ruling royals. regards, – Alensha  talk 22:05, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Archduke George

Hi Morhange, "Archduke Paul" is actually called Archduke Georg. It is similar to Archduke Otto, who was baptized as Franz Joseph Otto Robert Maria Anton Karl Max Heinrich Sixtus Xaver Felix Renatus Ludwig Gaetan Pius Ignatius - although Franz Joseph appears first he is not referred to as Archduke Franz Joseph but Otto. Gugganij 14:04, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for changing it. Gugganij 21:53, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] BRoy Style Guide

I've just created a proposal for our Style Guide - HERE - please do discuss it on the talk page // DBD 12:56, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:RM

Hi Morhange: please follow the directions at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Steps for requesting a (possibly) controversial page move and relist your page at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Thanks. —Mets501 (talk) 01:12, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

Hi Morhange. I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia, and even a short summary is better than no summary. Thanks. Picaroon9288 01:42, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Charlotte, Countess or Countess Charlotte

Hi, I'd be interested to know why you believe "Countess Charlotte of Rosenborg" is more correct than "Charlotte, Countess of Rosenborg"? http://www.thepeerage.com/p10983.htm#i109827 and http://www3.dcs.hull.ac.uk/cgi-bin/gedlkup/n=royal?royal19376 both seem to support "Charlotte, Countess" Thanks. Jcuk 21:15, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the warning, have changed the wording somewhat so the articles dont mention # in line to the throne. 88.107.210.0 16:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism Reverts

Please revert vandalism, do not just delete. This causes all their edits (including deletions) to be reverted. To do this, you go into the history, click the version you want to revert to, click edit page, ignore the warning in the red box, type an edit summary describing your reversion (like "rv vandalism"), and click save. Thanks, Cbrown1023 20:55, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

P.S. The page I am referring to is Talk:The Outsiders (film). Cbrown1023 20:55, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Eva Hart

Im getting sick of wasting my time on wikipedia every bloody thing i write gets edited to death by some self rightous pillock
